Description Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell) occupies the prime position among tho foodgrain crops and contributes enormously to tho total foodgrain production in the world. Spectacular boosts in the wheat production scenario have been achieved in India since the times of the Green Revolution which can be ascribed to the introduction of the CIMMYT semi-dwarf wheat genotypes carrying the dwarfing genes Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b from 'Norin 10-Brevor 14' (Borner et al., 1996) and the genes for photo-insensitivity from the Mexican spring wheats. Thus, the genetic upgradation of wheat can be considered as a key factor which was instrumental in ushering the nation to the status of self-sufficiency. However, at present, the increasing food demands of the nation make it obligatory to achieve another breakthrough in improving the yield potential of bread wheat.
